The CEN Workshop on EMSM project in factories was kicked off on 27th May 2024. The Workshop’s registered participants have agreed on the first draft of the CWA.
A new CEN Workshop is being established to expand on the innovative deliverables of the CHRONICLE research project. The project’s vision is to improve building performance in terms of energy efficiency, comfort, and well-being through the digitalization of building information.
A new CEN Workshop is being established to build upon the innovative outcomes of the R&I project RobétArmé, funded under the Horizon Europe programme. Targeting a step-change in Construction 4.0., the RoBétArmé architecture follows the three shotcrete application phases (inspection and metal printing, construction repair and surface finishing) aiming at automatizing particularly laborious construction tasks of shotcrete application through a highly digitalized robotics solution, which is robust and versatile enough to perform autonomous shotcreting in diverse construction environments e.g. tunnels, buildings, bridges, retaining walls, etc.
A new CEN Workshop is being established entitled “Ultrasound-assisted production of lignin nanoparticles”. This Workshop arises from the Horizon 2020 BIOMAC project (European Sustainable BIO-based nanoMAterials Community). The project seeks to establish an Open Innovation Test Bed (IOTB), a true collaborative ecosystem where technologies and solutions utilising nano-enabled bio-based materials (NBMs) will be upscaled and prepared for market applications.
A new CEN Workshop is being established entitled “Reference Architecture for AI solutions’ application within process industry – the EU project s-X-AIPI experience”. This Workshop arises from the Horizon 2020 s-X-AIPI project (self-X Artificial Intelligence for European Process Industry digital transformation). The s-X-AIPI project endeavour is to research, develop, test, and validate a bespoke suite of trustworthy self-X AI technologies tailored for process industries. This initiative aims to bridge the gap between AI capabilities and traditional automation processes, ensuring that AI tools are both accessible and effective across various industrial applications.
A new CEN Workshop is being established to build upon the innovative outcomes of the VARCITIES European Project (VISIONARY NATURE BASED ACTIONS FOR HEALTH, WELLBEING & RESILIENCE IN CITIES). The project’s vision is to implement visionary solutions in cities, creating sustainable models aimed at improving the health and well-being of citizens facing diverse climatic conditions and urban challenges.
The objective of the standardisation project is to establish European standards for customer data access and portability in the insurance sector to support the implementation of the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) Article 20 and of the proposed EU Regulation on a Framework for Financial Data Access (FIDA) Articles 2(1), 4 and 5.
CEN/TC 133 'Copper and copper alloys' develops standards in the field of unwrought, wrought and cast products made from copper and copper alloys, and addresses topics such as designations, terms and definitions, material specifications, and testing methods.
Railway travel has long been celebrated for its efficiency and environmental benefits. Yet passenger experience, particularly ride comfort, remains a crucial aspect for improving rail systems. The European Standard EN 12299:2024, recently developed by CEN/TC 256, provides a groundbreaking methodology for evaluating and enhancing ride comfort in rail vehicles. This updated standard replaces the 2009 version, introducing advanced methods to ensure passenger comfort is measurable, repeatable, and aligned with modern rail technologies.
The CEN Workshop on ‘Characterization and testing of membranes for gas separation applications’ was kicked off on 04 June 2024. The Workshop’s registered participants have agreed on the final draft of the CWA.
